What is One Lung?
- One Lung is a simulation and practical skills course specifically designed for anaesthetists, surgeons, nurses and anaesthesia practitioners wishing to learn about lung isolation, single lung ventilation and the management of common thoracic anaesthetic and surgical emergencies.
- The course has been designed by a group of thoracic experts from across the UK and has been running at several centres since 2011.
- From thoracic novice to expert: there is huge value in the course for all.

Would you like to run a One Lung course in your centre?
If you are a thoracic anaesthetist or surgeon, we would be delighted to help you set up your own One Lung course. The course has been developed by enthusiastic like-minded individuals, keen on sharing standardised methods of lung isolation using workshops and simulation. We have teaching materials, nationally agreed techniques and simulation scenarios that mean the burden of running a course is much reduced. Support for your course is not only with the learning material but also by attending each-others’ centres we can reduce the stress of that first course!
